AWSMobileClientError message accessibility

[nahung89]

Which AWS Services is the feature request for? AWSMobileClient

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. AWSMobileClientError supports message property, but the accessibility is internal. Therefore we can't get it from other modules.

Describe the solution you'd like add public for this property to expose it:

extension AWSMobileClientError {
    /// Underlying error message of `AWSMobileClientError`
    public var message: String { ... }

Up for this. I need to access this object. I think this is an intentional mistake? For now I'm going to unlock the pod, and add public keyword.

EDIT: A much better temporary solution, make an extension of the class, and make your own message object, like so:

extension AWSMobileClientError {
    /// Underlying error message of `AWSMobileClientError`

I was going to open exactly the same issue until I realised it was already done. This should be public.

There have been a lot of releases since the issue was opened. Would you be able to test this on the latest release?

Thanks for opening this issue. The message property has been made public -- this change will be included in the next release.
